Wolves star calls the League One club 'embarrassing' as he declares himself ready for the Premier League

Injury prone midfielder Jamie O'Hara has launched a scathing attack on relegated Wolves, saying he is embarrassed by the clubs plight over the last few years.

O'Hara, 26, missed the first half of the season through injury as the Molineux side suffered back-to-back relegations into League One.

The ex-Tottenham midfielder has admitted he is unlikely to be making the step down with the side as he believes he is still good enough to play with the very best.

He said: 'I’ve got the ability to play in the Premier League. I’m back fit now, so we’ll have to see what happens. 'It’s been pretty embarrassing the last few seasons and the club hasn’t really been going in the right direction.

'We’re due back on June 25, so I’ll sit down with the club then.'

Danielle Lloyd's husband O'Hara famously had a spat with the Wolves fans during their 2-0 loss to Brighton on the last day of the season, which confirmed their relegation from the Championship.

Fans chanted '£40k a week, you're having a laugh' at the £5m midfielder during the game, who stormed off the pitch while his colleagues clapped the travelling fans after the final whistle.

Tough job: The news is a fresh blow to Jackett who has barely been in charge of the Midlands club a week

O'Hara is just one of the former Premier League players in the Wolves squad who new manager Jackett will be aiming to keep hold in hope of a quick return to the second tier.

The 51-year-old quit Millwall in May and was announced as boss last week, with chief executive Jez Moxey calling him 'the special one' as his appointment coincided with that of Chelsea's Jose Mourinho.
